Sorry, no help here, just commiseration.  I had a similar experience
when trying to order 6560 Diving Expedition Explorer, from S@H a few
weeks ago. But then I ended up with two of them, so that story has a
happy ending.  But I still know how you feel. :(

I just ordered 6558 Shark Cage Cove and 6559 Deep Sea Bounty yesterday,
which was when I found out Treasure Hunters had gone buh-bye. :(

Greetings!

What we have here is a grown woman about to break down in tears; I just
called S@H and was informed that they've been out of 6557 Divers
Treasure Hunters since before Xmas.  And it is, of course,
discontinued.  This is the only set I need to complete my Divers
collection!  Does anybody have an extra they're willing to sell?  I'm
afraid I don't really have anything to trade (I'm a real specific
collector) other than a Pirate set (6261 Raft Raiders in a baggie...
thanks to my movers!).  If anybody has any leads, I'd be forever
grateful!

Also, my husband saw the photo listing I was going through and started
to reminisce about a set he had as a kid... that would be the 6861 X-1
Patrol Craft.  If anybody is willing to help me figure out the pieces
for it (since I'm sure the set doesn't really exist any more!), we could
make Matt a very happy man :-)

Thanks for your help in advance!

(...) I have a theory on why 6557 was so popular and sold out... but I wouldn't want to implicate any specific group or fans of any particular theme. I'll just say that it may have something to do with the one rather large white element that comes (...) (25 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
